Fallen

Heaven bent to take my hand And lead me through the fire Be the long awaited answer To a long and painful fight Truth be told I've tried my best But somewhere along the way I got caught up in all there was to offer And the cost was so much more than I could bear Though I've tried, I've fallen I have sunk so low I've messed up better I should know So don't come 'round here And tell me I told you so We all begin with good intent Love was raw and young We believed that we could change ourselves The past can be undone But we carry on our backs the burden time always reveals In the lonely light of morning In the wound that would not heal It's the bitter taste of losing everything, I've held so dear I've fallen I have sunk so low I've messed up better I should know So don't come 'round here And tell me I told you so Heaven bent to take my hand I have nowhere left to turn I've lost to those I thought were friends To everyone I know Oh, they turned their heads embarra*sed Pretend that they don't see But it's one missed step, you'll slip before you know it And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed Though I've tried, I've fallen I have sunk so low I've messed up better I should know So don't come 'round here And tell me I told you so, no I've messed up better I should know But don't come 'round here And tell me I told you so
